Crimson Pig 01:12
You think that you’re strong as a hammer But you couldn’t drive a nail Into the soil Props in a stage show You think that you’re as sharp as a sickle But rusted blades make edges dull A useless tool just like you Pretending you’ll be more than just a Pig masquerading as a sheep Crying wolf with your tail between your legs Shed your skin to hide in plain sight But even camouflage snakes Die out in the sun Crawl on your belly Pretend you’ll paint the town red While your true colors run
2.
Love + Trash 01:58
You met me in a neon fever dream With secrets up your nose And eyes full of mystery You couldn’t feel your lips enough To hold back your words So in between sentences Baby, I was yours And I used to warn myself about People who can fall in love in winter But you fooled me when you used Whisky to warm your heart You’ve got a habit of kissing empty bottles Searching for love down at the bottom You know it’s not hiding down beneath the swill But that never stopped you from trying I met a girl behind a dumpster in an alleyway She said for just a few minutes She would love me She smelled familiar when I pulled in close So I played the victim and I lost myself I’ve got a habit of kissing empty people Searching for love in the backs of their mouths I know it’s not waiting for me back there But that never stopped me from trying The parts of me that we both threw away Will never grow back I’ll always be used But I’ll forever remember the smell Of the trash When I hated myself enough To keep loving you

Backseat drivers Backseat lovers Backhanded compliments Dirty little secrets kept From who you share your boring bedroom with Who’s using who Is it me or you I can never remember Teach me pillow talk In a foreign tongue But I still can’t say “Forever” I’m a sucker for endings Whether sappy or happy I need to feel the full weight of loss Before I can move on Come for me or Comfort me It’s all the same “When you’re with me You’re with only me” Repeat it back so we Can both assume the blame A climax doesn’t mean The story’s over
4.
Annihilation 01:20
I’ve spent so much of my life Trying to peel back the skin And find parts of a person beneath Hoping to make myself bleed long enough To discover something that I loved And I know it’s arrogant to think that someone Or anyone would care enough to Share what’s left of me While everyone I know is too busy Singing someone else’s love songs I’m trying to write a song to sing for myself Even if it means I’m singing alone Not every song’s a duet Real freedom means having No one come to mind When you try to think of Who you’d want to see One last time before you die Don’t we all want to kill Parts of ourselves? What do you think I’ve been trying to do I’ve been waiting for someone to Witness my slow suicide One half an hour at a time
5.
We ended just like we began Unexpected and full of surprises Still I remembered to lock the door Behind me when I left Because I know that’s what you would have wanted I was baptized in your drunken piss stains That decorate my sleep And no matter how hard I scrub I can’t Wash myself clean Our love was like the way I’d sweat When I slept at your place An easy fix All you had to do was change your sheets And now we’re like the burns on my knees From living room floor offerings Christ, the bleeding only stops If I don’t pick the scabs I thought you’d be more than Just another set of curses For me to spit out of my mouth We never had a prayer I heard some say that god is love I heard some say that love is dead Maybe hell is beautiful people But the devil’s in the ugly details We ended just like we began Honest as the piss, sweat, blood and spit I should’ve known better than To place my faith in body fluids I couldn’t know better in the biblical sense
